New American Restaurants near Elmhurst, IL

“Amazingly delicious food and drinks! Our waiter, Colin, is the best and the added bonus is that he looks like Adam Ruzek (Patrick Flueger) on Chicago PD.“

“Decided to eat here last night, was not disappointed. From the second we walked in we were welcomed with open arms
I had the bacon wrapped dates and the calamari, both were excellent. Service was attentive and professional without being over the top. If your nearby and dont call in, your making a mistake.“

“We ate at Phase Three today at the recommendation of my doctor. And it did NOT disappoint. We even got a complimentary meal from the Executive Chef so he didn’t waste the plate after taking pictures of his new special. To say the food was amazing is an understatement. There were so many flavors and they all blended so dang well. They even had some unique beer option that we brought home. If your down in the Chicago area or willing to make the trip, it’s definitely worth it“

“So glad I found this place! I was browsing on Doordash a couple weeks ago, and figured I'd figured I should order something healthy that night. I was expecting a mediocre meal, but everything was so delicious! I've ordered from here a few times since. I've tried the Carolina, Mediterranean, and Classic bowls, and the Buffalo wrap-- all great!!“

“We dine at Seasons 52 often. This seemed to be an off night. The service was not as good as usual, I think they might have been short handed. When we received our food, (steak and lobster) it was good but not like it usually is. The food was warm but not hot. We really like this restaurant and will go back, I just hope they get back to the standard that we are used to there.“

“Attentive and polite staff! Amazing food! Great place to celebrate a special b-day dinner. Our waiter was fantastic with a fun personality! The atmosphere was energetic! Make a reservation today and enjoy a fun night out with delicious food!!!“

“Love the drinks & food! Very cozy & classic!“

“First the food was actually really great. The Korean ribeye was what I’ve been missing being a California native that’s used to eating Polynesian and Asian food. Pizza, Spinach dip, and the Martinis was not the best but good fruit mixes. Despite a few mix ups my sisters and I enjoyed the place. BIG ovation to the manager on duty Monday evening that listened and addressed the issue promptly. The staff are very professional and I’m looking forward to another visit soon. Great job guys!!!“

“Great spot for food

I went to Krave Restaurant in Bridgeview last week and really liked it the staff were super friendly and made us feel welcome from the start. The place is cozy and easy to feel comfortable

We had the Lamb Chops & Eggs and it was really good the lamb was tasty and eggs cooked just right. Also tried the waffles they were light and fluffy with bacon and eggs really hit the spot. Portions are big so you leave full

Overall a nice place good food good people I will come back for sure“

“Had our holiday celebration and had an extraordinary experience - great food and excellent service.“

“Great Linz steaks! Head chef and wait staff were outstanding! Great time had by all!!“

“My flight got canceled so it was the end of a long day when I finally made it to the Hilton Garden Inn, but the service at the hotel was great and the Cobb salad at the restaurant tasted like I had just picked everything fresh from the garden. Definitely stay here again!“

“Ellyns has awesome food and a very friendly environment. Never had something I didn’t like, and can always find something new on the menu. Great drink menu and specials. Ellyns will always be a go to!“

“We held a beautiful rehearsal dinner in the Mirage restaurant/bar. Service and food were fantastic, and the staff was more than helpful. Thank you so very much!!!“

“An enjoyable restaurant to eat“

“Good food lots of options, service should be spruced up!“

“I love Standard Market's Seeded Rye Bread! It is one of the best rye breads to be found anywhere in the west suburbs. Unfortunately the last two loaves I bought are so very , very salty? I do bake bread myself (not as good as Standard Market's) I am aware of the role of salt, sugar etc. and their proportions, so why this extremely salty version ?“

“Last night's dining experience was was one of the nicest evenings we've had in quite awhile. The restaurant took exceptional attention to my gluten sensitivity. Each course was perfectly prepared and presented at the table. Our server was delightful taking the time to explain each course to us & answering any questions we may have. I thoroughly enjoyed the wine pairing with my meal, while my husband opted for the Antiguan Uno Malbec. It was a lovely Malbec. Although Waterleaf was a bit of a distance, we are hoping to secure reservations in November to celebrate my husbands birthday. Overall, I can't recall having a nicer Birthday dinner. Thank you!“

“We had the best lunch. Our food was tasty and hot, not to mention generously delicious. No wait, great help. Open kitchen. I hope they open one further southwest.“

“Best Roast Chicken you'll ever have. Unbelievable“

“We went early to avoid any evening crowds. The room was quiet for conversation. Our server was extremely attentive and answered all the questions. The menu was extensive and we found exactly what everyone wanted. It was prepared quickly and arrived hot. The flavors and proportions were perfect. The Bento Box meal was superior for the kids. The California rolls and 2 sides were plenty of food and delicious. Definitely a new favorite place.“

“If you are looking for a good burger, this is your place! The food and staff are incredible, highly recommend!!!“

“We get this for takeout a lot, but you have to try the Fire Chicken Sandwich. It's one of my absolute favorites! The combination of pickled onions and jalapeños, topped with a sweet and spicy mango habanero sauce, is just incredible. And the cilantro garlic fries are the perfect side, especially when you dip them in the creamy ranch dressing.“

“Good food and great atmosphere“

“Great food choices. For ex. Goat & date salad with skirt steak for $35 was delicious. The entrees got to us fast although in the beginning was somewhat slow. Desert wise there are few other sweeter choices around. Overall though I would recommend the place.“

“Wow, this place is AMAZING? Great service, hopping atmosphere, and every single one of our dishes were delicious. We will be making this establishment a regular breakfast place during our Chicago visits! Food ordered was: Breakfast burrito Croissant Sandwich Buttermilk pancakes with a side of crispy bacon!“

“Had the Rose burger and it was 👌🏻“

“Very good service and food!“

“We recently got married at The Elm this past weekend (10/13/2024) and can't express in words how satisfied we were with their service. Starting from the first day that we went to see The Elm we were treated with the upmost respect and professionalism. We had our ceremony in the Kensington room, and our reception in the Madison room. The atmosphere and vibe of both rooms was everything that we could hope for. The staff was incredible, the food/drinks were AMAZING, and our guests had nothing but positive feedback. WE HIGHLY RECOMMED THIS PLACE FOR A WEDDING AND/OR ANY OTHER EVENT.“

“Extensive selection of whiskeys and food menu. Good for quick bites or something more substantial.

Went for the pesto chicken with sweet potato tots, delicious. Mango lime cake is the highlight, light and refreshing!

Natalie and crew are very attentive and great company.

A must visit when in the Lombard area. Cheers!!“

“The service was quick. Food was delicious. Smoothie was fantastic! Definitely will return.“

“Went here a couple of weeks ago. We played a round of miniature golf which was a blast then stuck around for dinner after. Fun spot!“

“We had a group of 10, each of us found something to our liking, the menu had a huge variety of appetizers, soups, and salads, dinners and handheld sandwiches! The service was great, friendly and quick! It was a nice touch that an owner/manager came and visited with us and share some history of the Resturant. I would highly recommend The Great Escape in Schiller Park.“

“After a long day of travel, we were welcomed by Sid our amazing server! He made delicious suggestions and made sure we enjoyed them. Amazing service!“

“Fantastic food and service! Thank you!“

“First time and I loved it!!!“

“Don’t order the short rib mini sandwiches! They were 90 percent fat. When I informed the waitress she indicated that there is always fat on those sandwiches. My sandwich was mostly grizzle and fat. My friend had the same thing but hers at least had some meat.“

“Tom is the most amazing human! He was so attentive! I can’t say enough positive things about tom! Thank you! You are awesome!“

“Had the Marley with chicken instead of a burger with provolone and the Korean bbq sauce and oh man…. So good; I can’t wait to try more things out! Pretty chill atmosphere too, looking forward to checking out the patio in the warmer weather. Highly recommended and I’ll be going back and back and back again.“

“Good food with good company“

“Blueberry Wine is awesome!!“

“Absolutely love Vistro! Amazing staff, delicious food, wonderful atmosphere, and superb customer service. It never disappoints!“

“I’ve been coming to this bar/restaurant for years and never had a bad experience. I hosted my birthday party this past weekend and our server Deanna was the absolute best! She was attentive, efficient, and friendly. She accommodated a party of 15 and made it look easy. We never had to look for her because she was constantly making her rounds and checking on us. I couldn’t be happier with our experience and it made my birthday one to remember. We will definitely be back!“

“First timer, walked into restaurant with a wonderful greeting. The shrimp ane calamari appetizers were amazing. Did not enjoy my Entrée especially the Mac and cheese. It was too soupy. Asked for another one and the same type of soupy consistency was delivered. Dessert was meant to have a good presentation but toppled over before arriving at the table but was still served to me.

Not too bad of an experience but assumed it'd be better“

“1st time here, It was a very nice experience, our server was great and the musicians were great too! The food was yummy! And the cocktails! I will recommend to my friends!“

“The name says it all! How do you convert a modest wedding into a more memorable experience? Have J. Fleming’s cater your event! John provided bar, great food, great service, at a value! Try his restaurant as well!“

“Great food, great service, a different game on each television“

“nice people and good food.“

“For a great mixed drink, ask for Beth. Friendly and took time to chat with us. From out of town it's always nice trip add places to out lost to come back to return we visit Chicago.And you could tell her attitude was genuine and not just to get a tip. When staff is friendly it just makes a place seen more welcoming. The drink was delicious and OMG she knew EVERY single one of her flavored vodkas off the top of her head! They've got a lot. That's love right there 😆 Reminds me of our local bar at home. Betty you're the best. We'll never call you Liz! 😉“

“The calzone was very good. The thing was stuffed, had good flavor. Wish I would of known about this 15 years ago.“
